《The Story of a Dreamer》Energies

"Hello, my name is Laiz Green, are you two staying here?"
Laiz's question made his presence known to Maou and Ashiya.
"Y-yes, this will be our first base in this world!"
Ashiya stuttered in suprise before setting to an authoritative voice. Though, anyone would be able to tell Ashiya's awkward Japanese.
An ordinary person would have thought this weird person was weird by the tone of his voice and his weird use of words. Everything about him just screamed 'weird!' to a normal person. Fortunately, Laiz was not ordinary and decided not to comment on it. He knew of Ashiya's background, a commander of the demon race.
Although Laiz had to admit, Ashiya looked nothing but a weirdo in his current state.
Laiz just smiles at his reply.
"I see, welcome to Villa Rosa Sasazuka Residence. It's good to finally have a few company in this lonely place"
Maou and Ashiya took a few seconds to reply as they struggled to understand what Laiz just said with their small knowledge and experience of the Japanese Language.
After a few second of awkward silence, the two looked each other in realization.
"We look forward to staying here!"
Maou stepped up this time and replied straight-forwardly.
The two were very suprised in their time in this world, the people, the techonology and the different standards. Each was vastly different to their own. They needed some time to adjust.
Laiz could tell this, so he said his goodbye before going back to his room.
...
Laiz had many things to do, so he left the two to their own and focused on his problem: Lack of money, Strength and a way to travel to different universes.
Laiz had his hopes in the 'Gate', a portal that connects to other worlds. A problem with that though was, he did not know what world it connects to. He had his faith on the system for that part.
As an reinforcement to this, he was studying subjects related to space and time. These subjects included Maths, Physics and other areas of Science.
Learning all these like it was some appetizer may have seemed crazy and impossible to some, but for Laiz it was achievable as he had the intelligence and skills to support him.

What Laiz set his focus to was the book about energies. He could see many possibilities with these energies going in hand with Maths and Science.
Things that require large amounts of electricity or other modern source may be subtituted by what he was about to learn.
So, Laiz took out his book from the inventory and touched it with expectations motivating him.
- - - - - - - - - -
Requirement met!
Would you like to use?
(Y) (N)
- - - - - - - - - -
Laiz let out a soft laugh
'Of course i would'
So with a quick and precise motion, he taps 'Y'.
Laiz was sure on what was going to happen next so he layed down quickly and closed his eyes.
Suddenly, information regarding energies flowed into Laiz's brain.
The pain he felt was similar to his Elemental Affinity sense when he had lower processing power. Except, the pain he felt was a few times more painful. This suprised Laiz a little as in his state, he is able to process the exact number of leaves in a tree and each of it's position through his senses. He was comparable to a supercomputer.
He put his right hand in his temples and slowly massaged that spot to relieve some pain.
Despite the pian, Laiz welcomed this with a smile as it meant there were a large amount of information he could use, thus bringing in more possibilities.
More than 15 minutes passed by with Laiz frowning on the ground.
At the end of his pain, Laiz stood up, opened the window and sat on corner to lean on the wall. He was exhausted from the memories he received and needed a bit of rest.
Laiz stared outside, he looked at the sun suppressed by the cloudy sky and felt the cold wind through his window.
He was calmer, and feeling more comfortable. Laiz didn't seem to notice this change and just kept staring outside blankly.
Many thoughts came to Laiz, from Oswald to now. It all seemed so unreal in spite of his experience in reading stories with similar situations.
Laiz shook his head, he was gonna get lost in thought if he continues staring outside. And he knew there were gonna be a mix of emotions as he goes deeper to recalling his memories.

So he stands up and takes a small notebook. He needed to record the main points in what he learned about energies to clear up the information as it felt a bit blurry.
After organizing Laiz's memories he noted the types of energy he has access to now by narrowing it using the things he knew about this world.
From what he knew there were two types of magic in this world: Sacred Magic or Demonic Magic.
As for what they actually do and the difference between them, he doesn't know. But his new knowledge was here for a reason.
What he found by searching his memories was many things. But what made the most logical sense to Laiz was an energy called Aether.
Aether is an energy that can be gathered and used for various things. Where you gather this energy from determines whether you are a dark or light magic user. It was identical with this world's magic, they were just named differently.
The problem with this world is it's limitations of energy gathering. From what Laiz remembered in the show there were no way in gathering Sacred magic unless a pill containing Sacred force was consumed.
As for Demonic magic, it is fueled by consuming all negative emotions around the user. Whether that be sadness, fear or hate. This concept was also supported by his memories on Aether.
From what Laiz saw, his only option now is Demonic magic. He was a bit disheartened by it's lack of potential in this world, but it was the only thing he had.
So he searched his memory for a method to gathering Demonic Force to use dark magic or otherwise known as Demonic magic.
Laiz found that to gather the Demonic force around him he has to first feel it.
Feel it..
".. Wait"
Laiz suddenly paused before jolting up.
'My new senses.. Could they be..?'
Now that Laiz thought about it, were there ways people could just feel their surrounding, unless.. It was some type of energy.
The memories Laiz received was getting more integrated in his mind as suddenly information regarding chakra came into mind. Apparently this chakra is able to create and manipulate elements and is the most common energy that can control it.
'If the elements in this world are controlled by chakra my Elemental Affinity must of allowed me to sense chakra'
This meant that this world DOES have another source of energy. Just that no one has the ability to sense it.
'This is good!'
Laiz was pleasantly suprised by this realization, this will allow him more possibilities to achieve his current goal.
...
Another week has passed since then. Now he was able to crudely control Chakra. This new control allowed Laiz to change the range of his Elemental Senses.
With his current intelligence, he could expand his senses up to 200 meters around him with no setbacks, any further and it starts to cause pain for Laiz.
Laiz was planning on working about other things he could do with this chakra this week.
Right now, Laiz was walking home from his job. The job he took was temporary and was only there to support his spot in the residence and his needs.
As Laiz fantasized about what he could do with chakra he abruptly came accross an interesting building.
The building looked old and was built of wood. It had two floors, the first floor was accessable by a small stair toward the entrance. While the second floor was smaller than the first. It also had many windows surrounding it.
Laiz could tell this was a Dojo from the style of the building, this was a natural ability to people like him who has watched countless japanese shows.
There was also the massive sign in front of the entrance, right in front of him.
'..It's not on a mountain that stretches high into the heavens named Heavenly Mountain...'
Laiz sighed in dissapointment as he compared the Dojo in front of him to a fantasy novel.
Anyway, Laiz wondered how good he was at martial arts as a result of the many books he has read. He also wanted to know if he can breakthrough from the level he was stuck in for martial arts.
So, Laiz entered the Dojo with curiosity and expectation in heart.

Vast Asleep
The story of Kingard the Binder in the aftermath of Broken This short story is the epilogue of Broken, the second book of the Chronicles of Mother's Gate series. It’s a great follow-up to the novel, a bonus story that adds extra layers but is set apart from the full-length narrative. Vast Asleep follows the story of Kingard, who finds himself caught in a world called Mother's realm, bathed in glowing light but strangely stuck in place. He encounters his greatson Varyan there, and learns that his experiences are likely dreams. As he grows more accustomed to the loving realm around him, Kingard remembers fear and trepidation about the face of the world, and he loses contact with his companion. This story answers the question, Is Kingard really dead? with a tentative no, and new mysteries brewing. It also raises the question, What's happening while he's awake? and includes an excerpt from the sister story Ride Awake, about Kingard's situation with the Colkh'rak. Praise for Tales of the Known World Bookends: Loved it. The difference between the two stories is great! The difference between the epilogue and prologue is astounding. So much light and love in the first story. You feel safe reading it. Healing. The second, so much darkness, pain and despair. The choice of vocabulary is awesome and makes an impact. And this set of short stories ties the two books together so well. -- Dana V. of Texas ★★★★★
